Anotace:	This timely book explores the diverse geographies of the War on Terror. Drawing on recent advances in social theory, it offers new case studies and theoretical reflections on one of the central issues in contemporary geopolitics. Unlike more traditional forms of geopolitical research, the authors neither seek to advise particular foreign and security making communities, nor privilege a select group of states such as the United States and its allies, nor focus solely on headline geopolitical issues. Bringing together a wide-range of examples within practical, popular and formal geopolitical imaginations, practices and experiences, this volume considers how these both rely upon and contest relations of gender, race and coloniality. It addresses current debates in social theory by deploying three broad approaches to interrogate the War on Terror: discourse and performance; biopolitics and governmentality; and affect. In doing so, the book demonstrates the reach of the War on Terror into a wide variety of social contexts, its effects, and how people are responding to it.
